blues, rhythm & blues, New Orleans, country, americana: S. E. Willis's fourth CD is a moving musical tribute to two founding fathers of American music, Robert Johnson and Hank Williams. Thirty years in the making, Taproot goes to the heart of Country and Blues roots, delivering truly original and inspired interpretations of classics. From the rocking boogie of Johnson's "Preachin' Blues" and "Last Fair Deal" to the heartbreaking intimacy of Williams' "Mansion On the Hill," Willis, a veteran bluesman with incredible vocal range and stylistic maturity, makes an important and memorable contribution to Robert Johnson's and Hank Williams' songbooks. "...one of the most sought-after blues pianists; he covers different styles with aplomb, comps like a master, and bangs out a mean solo." ---Blues Review #84. With: Bobby Cochran, Nancy Wright, Steve Evans, Kedar Roy, Ed MichaelsReviews availableMore Artist Info
